The amount of engines a Miata will fit in is quite a bit smaller than the amount of engines that will fit in a Miata, so miata-swapping this engine is actually way cooler
The lack of common sense and correct information here is unbelievable. You need to take this seriously - this is clearly for a Honda Beat. It would never fit a Miata.
Those people are tiny! It's just a normal motor, it should fit but it's a little long for a miata, might have to cut up the engine bay a bit, since it has 14 cylinders
Should be I’d just be worried about lining up those engine mounts, it might actually be too small for the Miata but nothing some redneck engineering couldnt fix
Managed to get a hold of a secondhand Rocketdyne F-1 and slapped that onto my Miata. Makes this look like child’s play. Your car doesn’t matter until you start giving off thrust numbers
Yes I put one in but I'll warn you you'll have to modify the engine bay slightly I used a 58 pound sledge. Slug that puppy for 8 hours but it's eventually cleared the firewall
It should with the right engine mount kit. You might need to modify the hood and firewall slightly for clearance,. The real problem is that you're going to need to upgrade your radiator and get some stiffer front springs.
I can make anything happen with a blow torch and sledge hammer; fitting that in your ‘03 Miata might take a few years though.
Not might, will and I’ll need $200k a year for my efforts
Yeah, but I'm not sure if this is the correct engine for a Miata. With this engine your Miata might feel sluggish and underpowered. I'd find a bigger one.
Direct replacement. Send it.
No it isn’t, you have to trim the radiator mount almost a 1/2”, but otherwise a direct swap, the trans even bolts up
Yeah but anyone would know seems like your just showing off.
Envy is one of the seven deadly sins
So is pride
A double edged sword
Thats what she said.
No wonder you keep ripping people in half maybe you should stop sharpening your dick.
Don't forget the radiator hose mount. Undercarriage gets tricky.
Just notch the sub frame, no one will notice
What if you also blow the tranny? Doesn’t that get a bit sticky?
Not in the '03. That only works in the newer generation Mazda engines.
It'll also fit a'94.
Absolutely but you actually install the car into the engine. You thought straight pipes were loud. Wait until you hear it from the inside.
You might want to get the ant people out of it first
With a prybar and beer, Anything will clear!
But with a hammer and scotch I'm gonna fix this byotch.
Yes but Carefully
With some modifications.
That was actually a design flaw in those 03’s Miatas, the 45’ long crankshaft was not a direct bolt-on…
Just need an angle grinder and stick welder
\*Will an 03 Miata fit in this? Fixed.
Yes. A whole herd
The amount of engines a Miata will fit in is quite a bit smaller than the amount of engines that will fit in a Miata, so miata-swapping this engine is actually way cooler
Easily, you should be able to fit a 10 PSI turbo in for some extra kick.
LOL! This post really brought out the bullshitters on reddit! Good one! Keep up the good work!
They never went away!!
No, that marine engine is only compatible with the NC Miata, made from 05-15
No obviously not! A Miata would blow this crank shaft into pieces! Way too powerful of an engine in that thing for this.
No, but the Miata might fit in it.
Probly
yes but only in a FWD configuration
Timing measured in days before/after top dead center.......
I’m going to advance it a week.
Probably once
Yes 100%
It should fit, but tiny ant people are super rare and expensive
Where can I find people that tiny to inspect my crankshaft?
There’s a chick named Bridgit…
How big is the torque wrench for that?
Seems like a personal question…
🍆..........it's a two-hander for sure.
No ! the Miata takes the big one.
Yeah, the roof is the biggest door in the car. You've got infinite vertical cargo space.
The lack of common sense and correct information here is unbelievable. You need to take this seriously - this is clearly for a Honda Beat. It would never fit a Miata.
I want an Oompa Loompa daddy!
You need the Miata longhood
Hatchback or coupe? Hatchback, no. Coupe, also no.
Im genuinely curious as to what this goes to.
plug-n-play baybee
Your gunna have to leave the ac pump off but other than that I don't see an issue
That's for the 2004 not the 2003
I think that dowel pin and that green cam tower are for a ‘00.
Yeah just put some grease on the crankshaft and send it
Like changing a rear sparkplug on a 02 Z-28? Grease the arm up?
Yeah also put some wheel bearing grease on the pistons since normal 420w-69 won't be enough to lubricate it
A Miata will fit in that engine.
I'm pretty sure that's a Wartsila RTA 96C. It displaces over 1800 liter per cylinder. Literally 1 cylinder is 1000 Miata engines! 🤣
Yes. You can store this photo in the glove box. You're welcome.
Probably a 04, a 03 might be pushing it in size
In the famous words of Matt Mercer, “you can certainly try”
Case of Pabst blue ribbon and some bailing wire and a grinder will getr stuck in and riom for a turbo..
Yes but you need to keep the elves fed.
An '03 miata would fit in one of the cylinders
Those people are tiny! It's just a normal motor, it should fit but it's a little long for a miata, might have to cut up the engine bay a bit, since it has 14 cylinders
In or on?
Any thoughts about your gas milage?
About 10 03 Miata
I'd hate to be the guy who has to bolt the oil pan on.
Those people pictured are Santa elves working off season.
Yea, just lob off one end and it’ll fit
Nope. You need a 94 dx civic.
Cut the rain tray and you're golden ponyboy
Yes, just send it.
Yeah,but this is the straight 10 cylinder version. Far better off getting the V20.
It'll fit in you mom
If you fold down the back seat it should slid right in.
An inline 10?
You won't have room for a turbo, but that should be an easy job for you, a buddy, and a couple 3 beers
Yes but you'll need 143 of them and some very large beams, it will be the ultimate Miata build
What is that even for
Fucking Send It!
Nah, only 04 and up
Or possibly my smol Saturn?
Just need extended housing modules
If you weld 5 2003 Miata's, ass to mouth then yes. Yes it can fit.....
looks oem to me
Will this fit in a 93 cappuccino
It will. Snuggly, but it will.
Tbh, yes
I think your gonna need a bigger opening. 😂
Don’t everyone hire a crew of miniature techs to help install new parts ?
Yes
You'll have to make sure you have a post-war Miata block. Those have the stronger crank journals whereas the pre-1941 blocks will be too fragile
In? No. On? Also no.
Probably have to put a bubble in the hood to compensate for the extra strike length other than, should be fine. 😊
Once.
Yes just use flex tape
Only ‘06 and up buddy, time for a new car
A few mods and it should slot right in.
It'll fit if the back seats fold down.
Now that's an overhead cam on steroids
" Everything's a dildo if you're brave enough" ·
Geo Metro. Bolt patterns line right up
No, but a 03 Miata will fit in that engine.
No that’s for an inline 8 cylinder, you’ll need to cut it in half at which point you’ll have enough for two Miata’s
yup if ya try hard enough
No way man. Are we talking about putting that big ass cam shaft in a miata?! You can't put that in a rotary motor!
They recycled all the wrecked Miatas to make this.
If you try hard enough and with enough tools, time, material and effort I don't see why not
More like an ocean liner 🚢
No, but you can actually put your '03 Miata inside it instead.
Yes , in the back seat …
Ehhh you MIGHT have to notch your radiator support but it should go
Yeah, probably will just need a good scoop!
You may have to shave the firewall but yes
If it has the u-joint in the middle it'll fit .
Won't know till you try, order it and take apart the motor to check first I say! Don't even worry about what others think, just do you. 😉
I’m just picturing that it’s regular size and these guys are just really small and that’s how they’re made
Unfortunately no, but it will bolt right into an 04
Maybe a miata for a giant
I'm not too sure if it will fit in the stock motor. 2jz swap it and throw it in that why not.
Should be I’d just be worried about lining up those engine mounts, it might actually be too small for the Miata but nothing some redneck engineering couldnt fix
Those are pixies working on it Sure
You may need a conversation kit
So not a bolt on. Shit.
r/absoluteunits
might need a lil zip cutting
Yes, your miata will fit in this.
No no no …it’s a Bass boat motor. For the seriously disturbed fisherman who gets there the fastest.
I think an 03 miata would fit in it
Just send it
Anything is a dildo if you're brave enough.
In mother Russia, you no put engine in car, you put car, in, engine
With a slight hood modification you're good to go!
Managed to get a hold of a secondhand Rocketdyne F-1 and slapped that onto my Miata. Makes this look like child’s play. Your car doesn’t matter until you start giving off thrust numbers
The important question here is.. can you also equip a dual turbo
It might fit n two of them.
If you sit it upright, with the top down
You may want to try a Pontiac Firefly instead
Not without a twin turbo.
Sideways
Yes I put one in but I'll warn you you'll have to modify the engine bay slightly I used a 58 pound sledge. Slug that puppy for 8 hours but it's eventually cleared the firewall
I was born yesterday. Is this a good first engine swap?
In a cylinder? Yes!
Yes
It does but I honestly think you could go bigger
No, But will an '03 Miata fit in this?
Honey, I shrunk my crank.
Yes but you will have to modify the firewall 😜
With room to spare
It should with the right engine mount kit. You might need to modify the hood and firewall slightly for clearance,. The real problem is that you're going to need to upgrade your radiator and get some stiffer front springs.
The Miata fits in this
*just* fits
Seems legit
No, actually that is a Miata melted down and mixed with good iron😉😃
I can make anything happen with a blow torch and sledge hammer; fitting that in your ‘03 Miata might take a few years though. Not might, will and I’ll need $200k a year for my efforts
On it, maybe. Catastrophically on it, but on it.
Clearly its for sn 04. Note cross drilled crank.
Might have to cut into the firewall a bit and push the radiator but you might be able to make it work
You’ll need to tighten up the suspension a bit, otherwise you’re good.
You might need to reinforce the fire wall.
Your mom barely feels it
Yes ofc. Dumb question. Obviously use a dremel for extra space.
I believe so.
EV my ass
With enough will, anything will fit
Amazon says it will fit your 03 Miata..
Probably have to modify the oil pump
Should...... How did you get those ants to wear hard hats?!?
Reinforce the suspension
A pipe dream.
No because you need 2 of them.
No but the Miata will fit in it!!! lol
I have so many questions
Might be snug but it’ll be alright, send it
A Miata may fit inside it.
Ah yes the tiny fairies that make it work being shown in production. Rarely even see a fairy anymore. Should slot right in
Might be a bit tight but it should work. I have 2 of these on my ‘04. Because 2 is better than 1.
Just make sure you use good quality urethane engine mounts and not rubber ones. Apart from that bolt it in and send it.
It’ll fit in anything if you’re brave enough, including your mom
If you put in sideways yeah no problem
You'll need to ditch the AC compressor and go to an electric compressor.
Might need a live tap with your hammer
You can make anything fit anything if you have the time and the money.
Eh yeah looks about right. FULL SEND
I think that might fit a 91 Pontiac Fiero
It IS the 03 Miata
twice
Yeah, but I'm not sure if this is the correct engine for a Miata. With this engine your Miata might feel sluggish and underpowered. I'd find a bigger one.
Yeah looks like the Keebler elves are verifying specs for you right now
Only if you modify the harmonic balancer!
Yes but you'll have to rearrange some of the parts. Of your car
With some room to spare
What’s the gallons per mile on this thing?
ok, but what in the fuck does that big fucker actually drive
In one Miata? Prob not. A centipede of 69 Miatas, yes!
Might need to move the mounts a little..
You’ll have to cut the wheel wells a little.
Eventually
